Re: WTF is happening in the UK?
I hail from a great tradition of Pitchforkers - 3 of my school's Old Boys helped organise the Peasants' Revolt of 1381.
The school history teachers (one of whom I'm pretty sure was old enough to have been there) went into great detail, just in case another Revolt might be necessary.
Particular emphasis was laid on how to end up like the third one - briefly imprisoned for effect, then had all rights returned and retired a rich man - and not the first two - beheaded; hung, drawn and quartered.

I think I'd subsidise a few pitchforks if they try the 15-minute neighbourhood thing.

Re: Plum’s Oops video in post 5242, did I notice a switched on pupil, at the end of the school cafeteria table, who hid their/her face whilst the camera was focused on the group?
That shows sharp thinking and good reactions!
Unless of course the bowl disguiser was just licking the remnants of the porridge from the depths of the bowl...
Which means that school meals have improved markedly thanks to the taxpayer since my incarceration in a NornIron Alcatraz some 60 years ago. I hope that is the case.

From the Times today - that could be quite a chunk of his arse! Sounds like an excellent choice for a senior post....I wrote:Some appointments in the new cabinet that may well come back to bite Dishi Rishi. I reckon changes within a few weeks.
"MI5 will give Suella Braverman lessons on what information she can and cannot share and how to avoid security breaches, The Times has learnt.
Rishi Sunak yesterday defended reappointing her as home secretary six days after she had to quit over a security breach. Senior government sources said MI5 was concerned about her conduct and would give her a personalised briefing."

Simple economics question - some 'pundits' are saying that delaying the 'Sunak budget' by 2 weeks has apparently produced about £15billion in tax revenue for HMG. What would delaying it until Christmas do?

Number 10 confirms Sunak has demoted his climate minister - the role will no longer attend cabinet.

Maybe “Rushid Sunak” is discreetly taking the climate scam seriously and avoiding 2 more useless Earth destroying CO2 dispensing flights to/from Egypt.
Thumberg & Attenbore hurl invective about Brits & others going to the Red Sea for some warmth and vitamin D, but it’s OK for the *DDs to waft in and out of Davos to discuss depopulation and enslavement...

Oh dear gawd, please don’t let the new crew in Drowning Street listen to this idiot ever again, though as MSM ramps up the “case” count whilst the country heads into the season of coughs & sniffles ther’s a serious risk of deja vu;

Re: WTF is happening in the UK?
Bad news again this morning as the revived ghosts of former d'queads of Conservative guvvments return to haunt us.
"Jeremy *unt has reportedly met with former chancellor George Osborne as he and Rishi Sunak prepare to try to fix a reported £50billion black hole in the country's finances.
*unt is expected to set out spending cuts and tax rises in an autumn statement that is now due to happen on 17 November - two weeks after it was originally scheduled.
According to The Times, the Chancellor has been speaking to his predecessors on the phone, as well as holding talks with Osborne, who was behind the austerity drive in the early 2010s."
And we all remember Osborne for this magic wheeze introduced to get things moving with a bit of consumer spending;
https://www.rpc.co.uk/perspectives/trai ... -overhaul/
Now as the UK faces a grim winter with all the associated rising costs, how many pensioners who traded in their cash pot for whatever reason will be first in the food bank queue and/or dying as they can't afford to heat their homes due losing that revenue?
Step forwards to accept the accolade George and help *unt, the useless failed ex-'Health' Secretary of State, to speed up the descent into rack & ruin.
Just in case anyone is looking for one of these, here's a link, so's you can make hay whilst the sun shines;

I think I will call my garden implement Marianne in tribute to the product description!

If they traded in their cash pot for better insulation, a more efficient heating system, and a veggie garden, then those pensioners are laughing.

Re: WTF is happening in the UK?
Luckily some of the English peasants are aware of what’s going on behind our backs, distracted as we are by the ‘plague’ theatre and Ukraine and the war and shortage of wiggly amps and food costs spiralling;
https://dailysceptic.org/2022/10/31/is- ... nevitable/
This from the comments after the item seems to sum up the entire theatre de la merde;
“This is neo Fascism. Fascism of old was driven by government officials co-opting business and industry. This Neo Fascism is driven, in contrast, by the multinational businesses elites and power brokers more than the government officials. The agenda is not so clear because in truth there are multiple intertwined agendas united in the intent to increase the power making stranglehold through highly effective lobbying (Co-option) to shape legislation and recruit technocrats (like Fauci), influencing to the point of almost wholly setting the news agenda, and of course making money. There is at the top-level the agendas of Climate Change, (increasingly) food supply, Covid and the Military Industrial complex. Private equity to the tune of trillions of dollars unite each of these, which can perhaps more usefully be thought of as mechanisms of opportunity. ESG investment (Environmental, Social, Governanace) is a total anti ‘the masses” disaster which simply provides a mechanism for these private equity funds and the ultra rich elite to siphon the money that should be coming back to individual private investors and pension funds etc into new businesses owned owned by the private equity funds. Worse they are being supported willingly by the very many useful idiots who wholly believe these narratives in the masses. Business such as heat pump manufactures, insect food protein start-ups, farming land and land for wind farms, vaccine development and manufacture. But the technocrats have become too cocky and are overplaying their hand. The erstwhile “invisible hand” of the technocratic elite united in this exercise in shaping state power law and subsidy to bolster these businesses, has actually – since the pandemic – become highly evident and obvious to those prepared to look, think for themselves and question the narrative. The level of government sponsored and elite sponsored misinformation is now overwhelming. The fact we are being gaslit by government telling us it is we who are purveying the misinformation had gone far beyond credibility. The technocratic elites have stretched the membrane so far it is now transparent. All I need to say are the words “criminal, Nazi, terrorist Canadian truckers” and “emergency act,” or “safe and effective” to illustrate my point.”
And now events in Dover and the south coast invasion show the extent to which HMG has lost control of the country, if they ever had it recently.
Even Rushid Sunak is vacillating on going/not going to Egypt since BoJo pipped him at the post. Strong and stable governance...?
Get those pitchforks ready for the haymaking!

Re: WTF is happening in the UK?
Shock horror, some of the UK peasants are sooh hacked off they're going to start taking direct action, yet TPTB seem not to have noticed;
https://www.aol.co.uk/news/expert-blink ... 00814.html
Perhaps the firebomb attack in Dover is only the first as UK Plod have pre-occupied themselves with trawling the interweb looking for "non-crime hate offences" and ignoring genuine crimes.
The only sign of hope on that front is the Chief Plod of the Greater Manchester cops who's stamping down on it and not before time.
There is also a theory that TPTB are looking for such an uprising in order to crack down heavily on ANY public protests so let's sit back and watch free speech disappearing as the Online Safety bill gets shovelled through the HoC without proper scrutiny.
Now where's that gin bottle, I know it's before midday but a crisis is approaching...
